Dog Walkers in Ligonier, IN

“Maddie is one of the most avid animal lovers, and most dedicated pet owners I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. In the years I've known her she's taken amazing care of her two dogs, Louie and Teddy from their puppy years into elderhood. She's also recently taken on the task of raising a darling pig named Archie, and has taken in a local stray cat named Nutmeg, displaying her versatility in animal care, and her huge heart for little companions. There's no one I would trust more with my pets, and I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants the best for their fur babies!”

“Anna has pet sat for me on multiple occasions while I was out of town. She was really great with both of my dogs! They loved her! She is very reliable and great with animals.”

“Lanae has been a loving Dog Mom for years. She has cared for our two large dogs and our Cat while we were away. All our animals love having her around. She treats all pets under her care like they were her own. I would not hesitate in recommending Lanae as your next pet sitter. Randy Hartman”

“Jennifer has taken care of my dogs and house multiple times when I leave on vacation. If I were to have to kennel my kids, I would not travel. Knowing that Jennifer is there to take care of them is awesome! She takes great care of the house and dogs. When I get home, they walk right by me as if I was never gone. She is a loving, caring dog lover that you will be thankful for after a relaxing vacation. 5 stars and I highly recommend, unless I need her that week!!”

“THE BEST! Super nice and helpful was able to help me at the last minute and my dog LOVES her!”

I am looking for activities to fill in my free time in summer. I care for my own pets daily. I have a large yard and 2 very sweet dogs and 2 loving indoor cats.

“One of a kind person that has a heart of Gold. She loves animals and takes such good care of the 2 dogs she has. I would highly recommend Frugal(Grace) to watch, walk, and take care of any animal I may have.”

“Olivia is a huge animal lover and has taken care of pets her entire life. She has an innate ability to connect with animals and they respond to her. Olivia is always kind and patient with them to ensure they feel comfortable, safe and loved in her care. She has participated in puppy/dog manners and obedience classes, as well as, volunteered as a walker at a shelter. You can see the joy animals bring to her and I think they know it. I would highly recommend Olivia to care for your pet. I know she would take care of it as if it were her own.”

“Jess has always loved all animals and I have always trusted her with my pets. When I got my first dog she was there to help me with the transition. I would've been lost without her help.”

“Bradley and his family have cared for my dogs and the dogs of family and friends for many years. Animals in their care, whether in their home or anywhere else, are loved and treated well. Their own dog knows no strangers and seems to be filled with joy at all times! Bradley manages her exuberance with a great combination of gentleness, humor, and boundaries. My dogs feel safe with Bradley and enjoy snuggles and belly rubs from his kids.”

About: I've always taken care of dogs. I've had dogs since I was born and have cared for many different types. I've watched over several of my neighbor's dogs. This included taking care of senior dogs and puppies. I have two dogs of my own, one older and one younger. My family has always been open to watching dogs, feeding, walking, and house sitting while families are away. We've fostered puppies as well as having our own litter. Needless to say, I'm open to any dog and love to watch them and meet a new personality. I'm a college student-athlete. I'm very active, so I love taking dogs out for walks or runs. I'm usually only busy with workouts and live at home. It's easy for me to change up my schedule. I am very comfortable going to your home to take care of your pup where they are comfortable. I also am comfortable bringing them to my house as we have two friendly chocolate labs who love meeting new dogs. We have a fenced in back yard, with a doggy door so they can go out whenever they want.

“Ainsley and I worked together for a few years in a coffee shop and then we both decided we needed a change! We would always talk about our love for animals and just how amazing they really are! Anytime an animal would come through the drive through we would tell each other and run up to the window! There wasn’t a day that would go by without a conversation about all the beautiful fur babies in the world. Ainsley was the only person I could trust with my beautiful babies, so anytime my family and I would leave for vacation she would be the one to watch my babies. My babies love love love her! If I even say her name their ears pop straight up with excitement! All I can really say is Ainsley has a strong love for nature and animals, and that’s such a beautiful thing to me. I would forever trust her in my home and with my babies! She’s the best of the best and no one else is like her!”

“I've seen how attentive Calyn is to her own cat's needs and how loving and caring she is for him. Her love and sympathy extends to any animal she comes across. She's always ready to care for them and get to know every unique personality. I also know that she can sympathize with owners who have left their fur baby at home for a couple days—I watched her cat for a couple days last summer while she was away. She knows how stressful it is, and so she will be able to provide great communication and an excellent service.”

“If anyone deserves to offer service on Rover, it’s Bailey. She is a loving and caring individual but above all else has strong moral foundations. She will go the extra mile not only for the Owners who trust her to watch over their Home/ Pet, but the Pets themselves and will treat them with love and respect to ensure they have a comfortable and safe experience while their owners are away. 11/10 would recommend”

About: I have been obsessed with dogs as a child. My parents told me I couldn't get one until I proved I was responsible enough to care for one. After a year of staying on top of the chores and responsibilities my parents gave me. I was finally allowed to go get my puppy and have been involved with dogs ever since! I have now done a 6 week in person dog training course. That came with basic dog first aid and nutrition. If you have any questions feel free to ask! You can find my business page at Solid Foundation Dog Training on facebook! I am currently setting all my own hour for work. I full time train dogs so i often can change my hours if needed. I would love to walk and check in on your pups to make sure they are as happy as can be. When we are not home our youngest pup is in the crate and does great. The older 2 stay in the laundry room and the hall leading to the kitchen with just a gate keeping them in there. They are fed 2 times a day morning and night. They get brushed a lot because of the shedding and they get snuggles on the couch every night. I love training and learning how to train them to do new things.

“Emma was amazing at taking care of my two puppies at my own house for a whole 4 day weekend! She is amazing with dogs! I have a small chihuahua that does not like people very much, but she was great with him! My dogs are very active and she tires them out every time - running, fetching, playing, etc. My boston terrier LOVES Emma. Since she started coming to pick her up for play sessions a couple times a month, my puppy gets so excited every time she's here. I believe that the fact that my dogs love her and are eager to see her to go play with her, says more than what I could ever put down into words. Highly recommend!!”

About: Note that I am also applying for additional work, so my schedule may be limited to mornings and evenings. I will not be able to house dogs. I can run or walk with any breed and size of dog, I can give dogs their food, water, and any needed medicine (I can also supply pill pouches). I am also a careful driver with a large enough car in case if a dog needs to be taken to a vet, a pet store, or the park. I always keep dogs on leashes and take any standard precautions I can to make sure that a dog does not run away, including always having them on a leash, watching them while they are outside (if there isn't an enclosed space). Like the above note, I’m also applying for additional work. While I am free over the summer, I’m liable to move away between now and the end of August I cannot care for pets within my home due to landlord’s limitations. However, I can handle long walks to get a dog the right amount of exercise. I’m also willing to give medications if necessary. I can also water plants, feed caged animals, etc.

About: I have experience handling pets of all sizes, including horses, chickens, goats, birds and donkeys. I have volunteered and worked with all sizes of house pets including Guinea pigs, rabbits and hamsters. Large dogs are no problem for me. I’m retired so am flexible to help working families, families on vacations or families on extended vacations. I have reliable transportation as well and am very much an outdoor person. I have my own pets so am experienced cleaning up pet accidents, regularly cleaning small animal crates, feeding, bathing, exercising and walking any size animal.
